Charlie Whiting, friend of Bernie (the man who is set to lose the most from falling viewing figures due to Mercedes domination) has now decided, after 2years of running, Front Rear Interconnected Suspension is now against the rules.
Talk about rolling the dice.

Talk about rolling the dice.
Perhaps what has happened is this...
McLaren, knowing that their FRIC is not great and will tie up a lot of budget do develop further, asked Charlie for clarification on developments for their system.
McLaren; "Charlie, can you give you opinion of this sytem we are developing, it's purpose is to aid the aero platform by tightly controling pitch, rake and roll".
Charlie; (has the metaporical light bulb moment), "But if the sole aim is to move the aero platform, that may constitute a moveable aero device and therefore can't be allowed"
McLaren; "I suppose so, but everyone else is doing it!"
Charlie; (Knowing that is the case anyway, but now having admitted so to a competitor has to take action) "We may have issue a clarification.
McLaren; Oh well (hehehe)
